For Immediate release:
2017 RENEWABLE ENERGY & SUSTAINABLE LIVING FAIR
Building off its success last year, the 2017 Renewable Energy will expand to include a Bike Expo and exhibits about how we can break free from fossil fuel dependency and live sustainably.
There will be a 2017 Renewable Energy & Sustainable Living Fair organizational meeting on August 9 at 6:30 pm at the Citizen Action office 94 Central Avenue in Albany, NY for anyone wishing to help come up with new ideas for this year's Fair and help us organize the Fair.
SNYFGP, PAUSE and the SIERRA CLUB are seeking exhibitors and displays for residential, commercial or community solar, wind and geothermal energy, insulation and other energy efficiency products and services. Earth-friendly and sustainably sourced products and crafts are desired too, as are cycling and energy-related vendors.

The sponsors expect to have at least forty exhibitors, both for profit and non-profit, along with Fair door prizes, and special offers for attendees. Food and drink will also be available. Admission and parking are free.
Some of the exhibits the sponsors anticipate include electric vehicles you can ride in... a solar boat... cell phone chargers powered by the sun... solar heat pumps... NYS climate change info… a color printout of actual property wind production... ways to pay electric bills via renewable energy... a workshop about investing in green energy funds... information on conservation, sustainability and how to lower your carbon footprint... details about a SUNY Renewable Energy Degree Program... and more!
There will also be a children's "Break Free From Fossil Fuels" Project Fair, a tour of Doane Stuart's gorgeous "green roof", exhibits on composting, hydro-farming and permaculture, sustainably sourced products and crafts, educational exhibits and storytelling.
Expect some surprises too- who mentioned alpacas?
